social problems in America

OK--i gotta write this paper on five problems in society for my English AP class... Anybody have an idea for five?

I've got three:

1. Money
2. Religion
3. Politics
4...
5...

suggestions?

Well, when you say society does that mean America or the world?
In America:
1. radical Religion (Islamic fundamentalists)
2. border control and illegal immigrants (Southern border control)
3. Political correctness (takes away our 1st amendment rights)
4. secularist ideologs that want the traditions of this country to just go-away(i.e. far left-wing)
5. racism and perceived racismpolitics-too vague, money-what about it, the economy is booming

As Winston Churchill once said "If you are 20 years old and not a Democrat you have no heart, if you are 40 years old and not a Republican, than you have no brain"

Religion is iffy because while it is clearly a problem today, society as we know it may not have come into existence with out it. I would argue that religion was necessary in the past, but has no practical use in the future as a means of social restriction and control; instead we can use reason to make "moral" decisions. For politics I would argue the core principals are good, but has been corrupted by greed and alternative agendas. Money is something that is necessary at this primitive stage in society; I would argue unbalanced control of wealth instead of money. my $.02
